    The way that ball bounced on the rim and then kind of laid there then rolled in. It was a horrible shot that had little feet on it.

    Looks pretty much like the game winning shot he made against Portland in Toronto - just because it bounced does not make it lucky, imho.

    I found myself recalling college physics and trying to calculate how much energy ball lost on each bounce. At the end almost none so gravity caused it to roll down into hoop.

    Great exam question if there are any science teachers here.

    Embiid takes some awful shots. He's the biggest guy on the court and he keeps jacking threes.

    I really wish at some point that the Finals would be shown on TNT. The Inside the NBA crew are just great.

    I like it. I think it works much better than "imaginary cylinders". Each to their own though.

    I still think the shot deserves to bounce all the way with the amount of skill players have.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Toronto-Milwaukee should be a great series. Both teams are really talented. I think Milwaukee is better, but not as experienced in big series.

    It’s gonna come down to role players, and I think Milwaukee has more reliable players.

    Imagine losing game 7 on a lucky bounce. That must hurt
